Meet Desiree

Civil Engineering
Class of ’19

Hi! I’m Desiree, I’m a junior studying Civil Engineering and am from Fort Worth, Texas. On campus, I’m the Treasurer of The National Society of Black Engineers and a member of The American Society of Civil Engineers . I also spend time fundraising as a student caller at USC’s Office of Advancement after class. I spent the past summer interning at BNSF Railway with the engineering department where I learned about infrastructure, and rode on a few trains!When I’m not in class or studying, I like to visit one of LA’s many museums , catch a movie downtown, or relax on the beach!
